As a user and developer, it’s a little frustrating to see Apple try so hard to ban an app that (like it or not) has real value to millions of people, while in the meantime allowing so much trash to exist in their stores.
Sneaking code into Fortnite? Really? I could probably pull up 10 examples of sketchy apps in no time that clearly are doing things they shouldn’t (and that’s just the “weather”).
Harm to Apple? I would argue that trash apps harm Apple considerably. For instance, I have effectively stopped even looking for software on the Mac App Store, and the difficulty of searching/filtering has curtailed much of my activity on the iOS App Store too. I know for certain that if the average quality was higher and the search was way better, I would be buying more. Shouldn’t Apple care about things like that too?
